Texans are a very good and talented team but they lack something. They just aren't physical I guess. Kushing was an impact player and he is missed for a lot of reasons. He brought energy and physical presence.

The Pats came in as healthy as they were all year and Gronk has re-injured his arm, Jones has re-injured his ankle and Woodhead hurt his hand. I don't want to bring up the Packers from 2 years ago...so I won't
